PTE Highlight Correct Summary Guide
About
In the test, youâll usually listen to someone talking for about 30 to 90 seconds. After that, you have to pick the right answer from 3 to 5 options. Usually, there are either one or two questions like this.
Exam Tips
- For this type of question, itâs important to understand the whole audio. Donât get distracted by reading the question. The options youâre given are about the main idea, not small details. Keep your focus on the big picture.
- Highlight Correct Summary (HCS) questions donât give many points in the Listening Section. So, donât focus too much on preparing for them for PTE.
Time Span
Try to finish HCS questions quickly to focus on more important sections like WFD. If youâre sure about your answers, spend no more than 1.5 minutes on each question while the audio is playing. If youâre not sure, donât waste time. Just decide quickly after the audio ends and move on to the next task.
Practice Task
Before you do a mock or real test, try doing a whole set of questions to get used to them. You can use the OnePTE app on Android, or iOS, or website for practice. Also, remember to manage your time well.
